Texas Rangers

The first thing to know about this game is that it won’t be in Houston, for obvious reasons.

The Rangers are catching some heat for refusing to switch hosts for this week’s series so that Houston could host later in September when the flooding would be under control but that would put the Rangers on the road for two weeks, which is a lot.

The solution is to go and play in Tropicana Field when the Rays are out of town. You can decide if that’s any better than being on the road for two weeks straight.

Andrew Cashner will throw for Texas on Wednesday. He’s quietly had a solid season for the Rangers.

Houston Astros

The ‘Stros will either be motivated or preoccupied now that baseball resumes after Harvey. Their playoff spot is all locked up but they do have to worry about the top seed in the American League and, more importantly, form.

The good news is that reinforcements are coming in the form of Carlos Correa and company.
